I have changed the appearance of the blog. The main feature of the new appearance that I like is that the comments are with the same size fonts as the posts themselves. This is especially useful for the polymath3 posts. (I will make some tuning to the new appearance once I will learn how to.)

That’s too bad, Klas, since you are a valuable polymath participant. Also the font size may more convenient to people my age but less so to younger people. Maybe I will need to make a poll about it next time. I still like the feature that the comments have the same font size as the main post.

One point: the previous appearance included a link to the RSS feed in the main page, and every post had its own RSS feed for the comments. The links to these feeds are now gone — could you put them back?

“RSS” is a protocol used by WordPress to automatically broadcast blog posts and/or comments to readers. I “subscribe” to the “RSS feed” which broadcasts the new posts on your blog, which means that I see and read the new posts on program running on my computer which received the broadcasts rather than directly on the blog.

WordPress also creates such a “feed” for the comment stream on each post, which is very useful for trying to follow the polymath posts. It used to be the case that at the end of each post you made, wordpress would automatically add a link to the “feed” for comments on that post, allowing us to subscribe to it.

Here’s information from WordPress on feeds in general: . I can’t find information on how to enable post-by-post comment-stream feeds; perhaps someone who knows WordPress better can help.
